Context of Matthew 9:26
24He said to them, “Leave! The girl is not dead. She’s sleeping.” But they laughed at him. 25When the crowd had been put outside, Jesus went in, took her hand, and the girl came back to life. The news about this spread throughout that region. 27When Jesus left that place, two blind men followed him. They shouted, “Have mercy on us, Son of David.” 28Jesus went into a house, and the blind men followed him. He said to them, “Do you believe that I can do this?” “Yes, Lord,” they answered.
